Info for A Prayer for Deliverance

Dieses abwechslungsreiche Programm mit dem exzellenten Vokalensemble Tenebrae unter Nigel Short verbindet emblematische Chorkompositionen mit Werken einiger der interessantesten Komponisten der Gegenwart und dreht sich um das Thema der Ruhe. Ein besonderes Highlight der Aufnahme bei SIGNUM CLASSICS ist Joel Thompsons neues Werk: Das virtuose 15-stimmige A Prayer for Deliverance verkörpert Tenebraes Kernwerte Leidenschaft und Präzision perfekt. Die zweite Hälfte präsentiert Herbert Howells’ Requiem – zweifellos eines der bewegendsten Werke des englischen Chorrepertoires.
